05/06/2002 Bruce Van Deuson  taxon changed Unknown (Mayfly) Tipulidae sp. (Crane Flies)
Obviously a crane fly (resembles very large mosquito). Photo is not detailed sufficiently to determine species. All crane flies are order Diptera, family Tipulidae. The "Mayfly" designation is not correct, as a mayfly rests with upright wings (2 pair), rather than 1 pair of horizontal wings. "Diptera" means only "two wings."
